Entering 4th night without power from fallen power lines in the Kinyaga/Bypass ( near Kagio in @County_20 ). @KenyaPower_Care customer care nonchalantly informs me 'we're chasing the contractor - lets see what happens tomorrow.' Best motivation to install my own solar microgrid

Indeed!
Ethical trading principles go beyond price and product to consider factors that support the community, health and ethics of the food system. Let's focus on fair and ethical consumption. Great article @wangumwangi @NicolePaganini7 #InvestInFoodSecurity

So heartwarming to see some of the mangoes we picked on Saturday being delivered to students at Githogoro informal settlement in Nairobi - one of many supplied by @foodbankingke school feeding programme. Keep up the great work! https://t.co/rGMlWXk4Gy
Our Agricultural Recovery program at Kinyaga in Kirinyaga has not only turned fruitful but borne healthy and nutritious -4tonnes of mangoes in supplementing our feeding programs. Thank you @wangumwangi for supporting this project in increasing food supply to the vulnerable.
